ACM@SMU's High School Coding Competition 2012
Students will participate in a hands-on programming contest, written entirely by ACM@SMU members. Teams of no more than three have exactly three hours to complete this ACM-formatted competition. There will still be Novice and Pro divisions.
Students at SMU are given ample amounts of opportunities for both work and school opportunities. Our most notable item that prospective computer science students are particularly interested about is the Guildhall at SMU, the nation's premiere video game development graduate school--an institution built by the gaming industry to churn out some of the world's best video game programmers. A representative from the Guildhall will be present on the competition date, allowing for students to get an exclusive sneak peak at what goes on behind their walls and allowing them to demo games created by current students.
Registration is closed! Any questions or team modifications can be sent to Mark Fontenot.
